False Alarm on the Avalance

The report of the burial of a skier in an Avalanche turned out to be a group of skiers recovering equipment that was lost over the weekend.

Deputies on scene report "one set of tracks going in, a Huge hole, and two sets of tracks coming out".

Deputies have spoken with the skiers and confirmed that there are no victims in this slide.
